Answer 1

Answer:

$M_1 = 3111$

$M_2 = 12409$

Explanation:

    Given data:

Amount of currency held  =  $1347 billion

checkable deposit $1347 billion

saving deposit $8189 billion

small time deposit $400 billion

market fund $709 billion

Saving deposit in the form M2 and M1

M_1 =  currency held as individual and traveller check +  checkable deposit

       = $1347 + $1764

$M_1 = 3111$

M_2 = M_1 +  saving deposit _ time deposit + maket funds

       = $3111 + $8189 + $400 + $709

$M_2 = 12409$
